Just made purchase of 510 package, need a little help

[sfetaz]

So I got started with Ecig cause 7-11 down the street from my house was selling njoy Express. I liked the flavor and usage but had too many problems with the 2n1 cartridges breaking or leaking. Now I have picked up a package for Joye510 from cignot. I have some questions:

1. I was not able to select the prefilled cartridge flavor or strength as far as I know, and when I use the atomizer and cartridge combo, I get virtually no throat hit and the taste of what I think might be peanut butter. When I use the cartomizer instead I get a perfect experience. Is there something wrong with my prefilled carts?

2. All the cartridges and cartomizers were wet inside the bag, not too much but made me think they were leaking, is this normal?

3. Can the USB chargers I have from my njoy Npro be used to charge the 510 batteries?

My experience with prefilled carts is that they are no good about 70% of the time. Whenever I order or recommend a new kit, I always suggest they get empty carts to fill themselves vs. prefilled carts. IMHO and experience, I dislike prefilled carts.

2. All the cartridges and cartomizers were wet inside the bag, not too much but made me think they were leaking, is this normal?

This sounds like this is more than likely the case. Were the cartos and carts individually wrapped in plastic(as they should be), or were they only capped with a plastic stopper? If the latter is the case, then yes, there was probably some leakage that occurred.

3. Can the USB chargers I have from my Njoy Npro be used to charge the 510 batteries?

While I do not have any experience with this model, from what I have seen, then chargers are completely different.

1) It's hard to say what's going on there, but I would lean toward a bad atomizer. You're not missing much tho, if you got the same 'marlboro' refilled carts I did, they taste like wet dog anyhow.

2) That is perfectly normal.

3) I would say no. IMHO, you should never use a kit PV with anything but the supplied charger, at least not until you really know what you are doing.

I have yet to get a pre-filled cart that did not have juice spilled into the cellophane pack they were shipped in.

Re' taste
Pull out the filler from your "flavor unknown" cart, rinse it out with running water and dry it by squeezing it in a paper towel. Reinsert the filling and add new e-juice. See if there is an improvement in taste and th.

Best of luck.

Question 1 - Be sure to blow out the atomizer before you use it. There is some primer solvent inside the atomizer when it's new. Blow several times through the bridge end until nothing comes out of the threaded end. Then drip about 5 or 6 drops of liquid into the atomizer (onto the bridge, which is V-shaped with mesh material covering it).

When using cartridges, you might have problems with the juice not wicking properly into the atomizer. Also, some cartridges might have dried out by the time you receive them. Quite often, the prefilled liquid in the inner cart of the cartridge is not very tasty.

If I was using cartridges (I'm not, I use cartomizers), I would remove the filler from the inner cart in the cartridge, rinse the filler with tap water, dry the filler using a paper towel, drip your favorite juice into the inner cart about 3/4 full, and then put the filler back into the inner cart, soaking up the juice, and be sure to keep the top of the filler level with the top of the inner cart.

At times, you might have to drip 2 or 3 drops onto the bridge of the atomizer to keep it wet, especially when the juice is not being wicked properly from the filler in the inner cart to the atomizer. If you get a burnt taste, drip 3 drops into the atomizer.

Question 2 - Don't know without seeing it.

Question 3 - I wouldn't risk ruining your 510 batteries using a charger from another brand of batteries.
